MTL - You Agreed To Fight Mechas, But Your Body Exploded Into Stars?

Chapter 5 Obtaining the Mecha Module

 The passage is illuminated by emergency lights and does not appear dim.

 It’s different outside the passage.

Because the high-rise building is entangled with giant vines, and a few floors below, thick leaves seal the windows, preventing any sunlight from entering.

 In addition, civilization has been destroyed, the power has been out of power in the building for a long time, and the lights have lost their function.

Jiang Chen looked inside along the entrance of the passage, and could only see a dark patch of darkness, unable to observe any effective information at all.

"That does not work."

“It’s too dark inside, and I don’t have night vision. Even if I don’t have that large elite monster, and I’m besieged by a group of mobs in the dark, it’s hard for me to end up well.”

“Attract the mutated monsters and fight in the passage, and the sound will spread far.”

“At that time, dozens of mutant monsters may be attracted by the sound and run out one after another.”

 “It’s also an act of seeking death.”

 For those who don’t want to fight, this basic trial is very simple.

 You only need to defeat one monster at the beginning, and you should be able to spend twenty-four hours peacefully on the roof.

 However, in Jiang Chen's eyes, this trial scene is quite difficult.

In the lightless high-rise building, there are countless mutant monsters scattered, and it feels like a single move can affect the whole body.

It is difficult to clear monsters and obtain resources bit by bit.

 Is there any way to change this situation so that people only face a few monsters at a time?

Jiang Chen looked at the mechanically constructed metal door frame, and an idea came to his mind.

 The walls and doors of the emergency passage are all made of metal. The steel is tens of centimeters thick and looks extremely strong.

Even with bombs, they may not be easily destroyed, let alone this group of mutants—

They are as ferocious as they are ferocious, and in the final analysis they are still flesh and blood.

Even that big guy may not be able to shake such a thick steel alloy.

 So, he only needs to return to the top of the building, use the sound to attract the mutated monsters from the lower floor, and then guard the door.

 At the same time, you only need to face attacks from one or two mutated monsters!

 As for the big guy on the fifth floor...

 The body is large and weak.

The huge size, which is four to five times more than that of ordinary mutants, makes it unable to pass through metal portals and squeeze into emergency passages.

There is no way to go to the roof of the building to cause trouble for Jiang Chen.

The more Jiang Chen thought about it, the more he felt that this method was feasible.

He no longer continued downwards, but followed the emergency exit all the way back to the top of the building.

 After arriving at the tarmac, he did not immediately start making noise.

Since we want to use the terrain to spawn monsters, we naturally have to maximize our advantages!

Jiang Chen came to the crashed helicopter, looked around, bent down, and hugged the broken tail with all his strength.

"drink!"

 The model of this helicopter is different from the current one.

The tail alone weighs at least two to three tons.

This weight has reached the endurance limit of the Zero exoskeleton, but it can still be dragged.

With the sound of steel scraping against the ground, Jiang Chen dragged the tail fin to the entrance of the passage.

 Gently put it down, the tail wing blocked most of the passage opening, leaving less than half of the space.

“The primary mutants move by crawling. Even if half of the door is blocked, they can easily crawl over.”

Jiang Chen was not satisfied and came to the crashed helicopter again to collect the scattered parts.

 And using the powerful force provided by the exoskeleton, he dragged them one by one and piled them all at the entrance of the passage.

 The originally spacious passageway only had one or two narrow gaps left.

 “It’s almost done now.”

Jiang Chen looked at this masterpiece with satisfaction.

 When he was carrying these steel parts, in order to make as little noise as possible, he almost squeezed the strength of the Zero exoskeleton to the limit.

 The armor value has been greatly reduced as a result, from ten points to six points.

 Next, it’s time to verify the results.

Jiang Chen picked up the iron rod on the side, his palms sweating a little.

He actually had no way of determining whether these metal obstacles could block the impact of the mutated monsters.

I don’t know if there are any other types of mutated monsters in this building besides the little skinny monkey and the big silly one.

but…

 There are not so many perfect things in the world.

Since you want to kill monsters and become stronger, how can you not take some risks? He took a deep breath, raised the iron rod, and struck the tail of the helicopter in front of him hard.

 “Dang, Dang!”

Sound passes through the metal cavity of the helicopter tail, reverberates inside the emergency channel, and quickly spreads downward.

 The air became quiet for a moment.

 The next moment, the screams of the primary mutants sounded inside the high-rise building.

Mutants with gray and purple veins sprang out of the darkness, followed the emergency passage, and surged towards the roof of the building like a tide!

 But when they rush to the top of the channel.

Suddenly, I discovered that the exit to the outside was blocked by layers of metal barriers, with only a few gaps letting in the light from the outside world.

 The mutants who rushed to the front got into the biggest gap first.

　　It had just emerged when it saw a warrior wearing a silver-black exoskeleton, raising the iron rod in his hand.

 “Is the canteen open for dinner?”

 “Congratulations, you are the first.”

 The iron rod fell and smashed its head.

 The mutants in front lost their movement, while the mutants behind were in a panic.

 Some climbed up and tried to get through another gap.

 Some of them opened up the corpse of the last mutant and got into the largest gap.

 Two mutants appeared almost at the same time.

“Don’t be in a hurry, line up carefully, one person per person, everyone will have a share.”

 One poke, one smash.

 The two mutants were like fish on a chopping board. They did not survive for a second or two before going directly to the next stage.

 The abyss aura pouring out from their corpses flowed into the abyss patterns in Jiang Chen's palm.

 A line of information also appeared.

　　【Kill the primary mutant and obtain the prop: Spiritual Blood Living Root. 】

 …

  【spiritual blood living root】

 【Quality: Ordinary】

  【Type: Props】

  【Effect: Used on armor whose integrity exceeds 50%, it can repair two points of armor value. 】

  【Description: A living root nourished by spiritual blood, it seems to be still beating. 】

 When carrying heavy objects previously, the Zero exoskeleton was overloaded and four points of armor durability were lost.

Jiang Chen didn't hesitate when he saw the armor-repairing tool. He took it out of the abyss pattern and used it on the spot.

I saw a group of purple vines emerging from the palm of my hand, quickly wrapping around the exoskeleton along the gloves, turning into countless tiny roots and vines, and got into the cracks.

  Most of the cracks on the surface of the Zero exoskeleton healed immediately.

Jiang Chen saw this, and his actions in dealing with the mutants became much faster.

 Auras of abyss flowed into the abyss pattern following the death of primary mutants.

 About every four abyssal breaths, one material or prop will be produced.

However, the [Mecha Module] Jiang Chen wanted to obtain never appeared.

 Until the eighth piece of information emerges.

Jiang Chen’s eyes lit up.

　　【Kill the primary mutant and obtain the module: root vine enhancement. 】

 …

  【Root and vine enhancement】

  【Equal order: zero】

  【Rarity: Common】

  【Type: upper limb module, lower limb module. 】

【Effect 1: When loaded as an upper limb module, increase strength by 2 and defense by 1. 】

【Effect 2: When loaded as a lower limb module, the agility is increased by 2 and the strength is increased by 1. 】

  【Description: The roots have replaced my flesh and blood, and the juice is flowing in my body. 】
